It's an RPG, but you have no real role to play as you have almost no meaningful interaction with any of the hundreds of cookie cutter NPCs who just repeat the same handful of lines.

loverslab mods do not have as much compatibility as one would hope
otherwise, skyrim is awesome once you mod it

>>343206507
Yup.

All sidequests feel like they finish in Act 1 or 3, and Guilds feel incomplete thanks to having nothing worthwhile to do once you've gained control.

>>343205996
Vanilla seems barren and uninteresting and the towns are tiny, also my copy crashes everyone I try to swim no matter what I do.

Shit writing, bad combat, CoD tier RPG elements, repetitive quests and linear dungeons.

Should I buy all the DLC so I can get the Legendary or whatever edition for free?

>>343205996
It's writing and lore is fan-fiction level and it's world is static and unresponsive.

The game lead me up to get a divine bow of banishing the undead and when I got it the thing was worse in every way to the bow I already had.

It removed many RPG elements from previous games and focuses too much on you being more important than you really are while doing nothing to support this.

I spend thirty hours speccing an unarmed run the game didn't help me with, only for it to ask "Aren't you killing those really cool dragons so you can get those really cool dragon powers you never use?"

someone explain pls

>>343205996
The writing and story are bad and uninteresting, and destruction magic is too weak.

Magic became shit. As someone who likes to play a mage in rpg's you can expect my reaction.

The dragons are wyverns, not actual dragons.

So true so sad.

Just reinstalled with a ton of mods, enjoyed for like 2 solid hours. And then back to DS3.
>>
>>343205996
Lack luster stories and quests compared to the last game.
>>
>>343205996
Not an RPG.
>>
the gameplay and RPG elements suck balls
>>
>>343205996
Too many copy-past tombs with draugrs. That' s what I hated the most.
>>
>>343206286
This, but to extrapolate:

The difficulty settings literally just set a multiplier to the amount of damage you do and take, which means that you level up your armor faster on legendary, but level up attack skills slower, which also creates an imbalance with any actually hard boss as its difficulty doesnt reward you with any better gear since its tied to your level and your skills level disproportionately.

TL;DR, if you arent on adept or below, it fucks up the game.
>>
>>343205996
moving while attacking
>>
>>343205996
Environment feels cramped and artificial while the characters and story are lifeless, also combat is one-dimensional, hack n slash, damage sponge shit.
>>
>>343205996
Everything is boring, bland and uninteresting.
